I went to @29rooms last weekend. As I waited to enter this beautiful room designed by @thehoodwitch, I heard 2 sisters talking and one of them kept saying “Lord soften my heart”. 🌹
🌹
Me and my sis started talking to them and I told her I appreciated this prayer and that this prayer felt like the prayer I need daily - to soften soften soften soften.
🌹
Softening my heart is my religion.
🌹
There is nothing to do but keep softening.
🌹
Soften in community with your friends and family. This is radical practice- being soft with each other when we been socialized to be hard. To value softness is our bodies when we live in a culture that says rock hard bodies are most desirable.
🌹
To allow the truth to flow from you even when it is venomous and full of fire. Soften and let it flow like lava.
🌹
To value softness is a paradigm shift
🌹
Love you 🌹
🌹
I’m holding intention to soften tomorrow in community for Sacred Sensuality for Women: Exploring the Senses Through Kundalini Yoga tomorrow Saturday 12/15 at 10am at the @shinecenter 339 15th Street unit 333, Oakland CA 94612. Join community that values softening and our places as sensing feeling women 🙏🏾

Dm me for more info 🙏🏾🌹❤️

The breath gives us access to our sensuality
Sensuality is a gateway to the heart
The heart is the gateway to freedom
🌹
I recently completed a 21 day Tantra inquiry with @faristudiosart . I realized I was typically using lust as a gateway to sensuality. This pattern of jumping to lust energy has been limiting my own awareness of my infinite self. 🌹
Sensuality is a way to interact with ourselves and the whole world. Sensuality is a way to CONNECT. Connection is beyond the physical realm (sometimes). Our bodymindspirits have the potential to experience connection 24/7 and we have the ability to know ourselves as Infinite.

“The journey of a 1000 miles begin with one single step” - Lao Tzu
🌹
I invite all women feeling called to:
🌹slow down
🌹connect with self
🌹be in community 🌹heal their relationship to”sensuality”
🌹deepen their awareness of sensuality
🌹experience Kundalini Yoga
🌹be fully accepted as they are

I will not tolerate sacred masculine bashing!
When we bash the masculine element, we bash the masculine element that resides in all living beings. I uphold the sacred masculine that resides in me. I’m learning to trust it and hear it’s sacred wisdom. •
I feared this element for years. I confused the violent behaviors of my father with the sacred masculine. Sometimes both reside in us humans.
•
It’s not about “men” but it also is about men. I don’t want to talk about men with disdain. Nor do I want to talk about any gender with disdain. All of us our holding sacred medicine and we all deserve to be treated as such.
•
Yes indeed some people are “unconscious” that they hold medicine and they may “seem” to be acting “the fool”. If we can see the part of them that is out of touch with their medicine, then we are gaining insight to the part or ourself that is also out of touch with our own medicine. •
Shaming aspects of another is shaming an aspect of ourself.
•
I love the divine feminine. I love the divine masculine. I love the divine that is not aligned with those words. I love the divine queer. I love the divine that is constantly recreating itself. •
•
•
I love them all. They are all in me and my teachers. But I can not sit back anymore and watch the sacred masculine disrespected. I am his ally.
•
I am feeling very aligned with the sacred Black masculine. I’m so tired and disgusted of how mainstream and humans treat the sacred Black masculine as a “stud”. I am NOT HERE FOR IT! •

I WILL NOT TREAT THE SACRED MASCULINE AS A FUCK BOY!

I WILL NOT TREAT THE SACRED MASCULINE IN ME AS A FUCK BOY

Under the energy of the last Full Moon of 2018 and Winter Solstice to collectively create a field of healing and reflection.

Let's gather to elevate ourselves and this most sacred time of the year to get crystal clear before the new year ahead!

The Winter Solstice is a powerful time of year with the longest nights and shortest days. In the Kundalini Yoga community, yogis gather during the time of solstice to meditate, spend in reflection and to connect; with less talking & more noticing. ❄🕉❄
